Lance! Are you SHITTIN ME?!? You're related to The Maddox Bros. & Rose? I actually know of that group. The usual Country/Cowboy/Hillbilly songs but also some that really jump, Western Swing with a beat, sort of a Cowboy Boogie Woogie almost. Do that makes ya happy? I shore hope it do...

While I do think this event is getting to be too kid friendly (especially the constant humoring of those who feel the need to get onstage every five minutes), I think the event ran FAR smoother than last years. I was highly critical about 2011 and I think that this year Baby Doe and Otto addressed a lot of those concerns. Loved the quick check in process (though I think you should give out the event pamphlets with the wristbands- a lot of people seemed to miss them at the entrance by going around the side of Bali Hai) and the security keepin' some obvious crashers out. My bitch this year is that there seemed to be less music, I swear there were more bands last year and previous. I can see Cabernet Dance and The Devil-Ettes as poolside and pre-show entertainment, but as main attractions, no.
Despite my complaints, I do appreciate all the hard work put into this event by everybody. I'm a lifer (only missed #2) and I'm gonna come no matter what. But I may bitch once in a while. Or more.

Not to toot Jason, Larry and I's horns but "TOOT TOOT". We got a little airtime on KPBS just prior to the event. Posting it here for anyone who's interested.

Wow! The Maddox Brothers and Rose were an amazing band. Way back when I played in a band we covered this tune by them:

Very, very cool! My mom still has her signed photo of the Maddox Brothers and Rose (from the 1950's) when they would appear at places such as Riverside Rancho. Love that sound!

Does anyone have any extra pint glasses they are willing to sell or trade?
We accidentally forgot to grab a couple samples for ourselves and now we have none of our own pint glass designs
If you have some you are willing to part with please PM me

You might want to check out Hank Snow's Snow in Hawaii on Bear Family CD for authentic hulabilly. Plus the cover sports a caricature of Hank sitting on a Tiki playing a uke... and photos of Hank with leis and wahines inside. I'm not aware of an album that direct hits the theme more than this one. If there is one, I'd like to hear about it!
Very cool about the Maddox Bros. and Rose (and the number of people on this site that are familiar with them.)
